Fog signaling has diverse roles in epithelial morphogenesis in insects
The Drosophila Fog pathway represents one of the best-understood signaling cascades controlling epithelial morphogenesis. During gastrulation, Fog induces apical cell constrictions that drive the invagination of mesoderm and posterior gut primordia.

Wnt proteins can direct planar cell polarity in vertebrate ectoderm
The coordinated orientation of cells across the tissue plane, known as planar cell polarity (PCP), is manifested by the segregation of core PCP proteins to different sides of the cell.

Theoretical tool bridging cell polarities with development of robust morphologies
Despite continual renewal and damages, a multicellular organism is able to maintain its complex morphology. How is this stability compatible with the complexity and diversity of living forms?

Identification of Binding Proteins in Xenopus laevis by MALDI-TOF/TOF Mass Spectrometry
MALDI-TOF/TOF MS has been widely used for the identification of proteins in the proteomics field. Here we tried to identify novel proteins during vertebrate development by this MS and targeted the protein binding to Xenopus β-arrestin 2 (xβarr2).
